EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide image, created by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the 1920s, showcases the elegant Dr. Charles William Richardson house situated in the affluent neighborhood of Chevy Chase, Washington D.C. The 17-acre estate, acquired by Amy (also Aime´e) Small, the daughter of Washington, D.C. florist and landowner, John Henry Small, is a breathtaking display of early 20th-century horticultural splendor. The image captures the picturesque residence, surrounded by an exquisitely landscaped garden, adorned with a diverse array of blooming flowers. The lush greenery and vibrant colors of the daffodils, which were likely in full bloom during this spring season photograph, create a stunning contrast against the white exterior of the house. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering figure in American photography and architecture, expertly captured the essence of this historic property. Her keen eye for detail and appreciation for the natural beauty of the estate are evident in this image. The lantern slide, hand-colored between 1920 and 1930, is a testament to the rich heritage and history of this remarkable estate. The Dr. Charles William Richardson house, nestled in the rolling hills of Chevy Chase, continues to stand as a symbol of the elegance and refinement of the early 20th century. This vintage image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the beauty of nature and the art of horticulture were celebrated in the most exquisite of ways.
